We report simulation results for all-cause mortality between 1999-2016 for 2 scenarios: baseline (status quo) and a counterfactual scenario of no excess weight in which the BMI for each individual with excess weight is set to the 'optimal' BMI (BMI*).
Scenario names are used as prefixes for file names.
We report the mean and 95% uncertainty intervals of our simulation results for each scenario for the following outcomes: deaths, life expectancy (LE) (period, conditional at age 20), and mortality rates (crude, per 100,000).
We also report the mean and 95% uncertainty intervals for the absolute difference (labelled 'diff') and relative (percent) difference (labelled 'rel') between the baseline and no excess weight scenarios.

Outcomes are reported by subgroup (state, sex, race/ethnicity, age groups), which are coded as follows:
